Quote: Sexual Deviant "I don't think it's a case of not pulling out the stops, we are in the midst of a tricky run of fixtures, and as much as it pains me to admit, we are a one-man team, and we are desperate to have him back in time for a run of fixtures that we can pick up some points in.

Anyway, according to his Twitter page, we are making a move for...........Freddy Adu! Feel the underwhelment!'"


Hmmm, it's the kind of signing a mid tabled premiership club with little risk of relegation (although that's hard to say this year) should be making.

One hell of a risk, for 1.5mill (it's good money considering Hull's situation).
Sounds ridiculous but 1.5mill spent on Kris Boyd would be far more worth in my opinion. I believe an offer of that region 'would' be accepted by Rangers.

Routine victory for Leeds today. Tidy finish from Beckford, thought United's lack of composure in the final third cost them, they're usually clinical but they seemed far too rushed today.

Birmingham at home (assuming they get through). I'll take that, by far and away the better side in the league game a couple weeks ago.

Home to the winner of Sheff U and QPR. Could be worse.

Best side won. We were $hite, just like our whole season so far. Our passing is diabolical. It was more like a League 1 side playing a North-West Counties side.

Leeds' workrate off the ball needs to be commended, they never gave our players any chance on the ball. Ketchup continues to scare the $hit out of me with the ball at his feet, Neville continues to fail to understand how to play football, and Berbatov continues to stand there.

Hopefully, the performance tells Fergie one thing. There is absolutely no way in hell we can play kids against City. I aint bothered about the Carling Cup, but there is no way I could cope with us laying down and letting them ba*tards get into a Cup final that they'll win.

It was good to see the excitement before kick off at a football game again. It reminds me why teams like Leeds should be in the Premier League ahead of your Wigan's and Pompey's.

Six substitutions @ 30 seconds = 3 minutes.

Constant time wasting from the 19th minute by their goalie.

Becchio spending Drogba time on the floor.

It definitely added up to more than 5 minutes, however, Foy could've given us 90 minutes and we still wouldn't have scored.

Fabio, Wellbeck and Obertan apart, it was practically a team of United regulars.

Leeds' game-plan was absolutely spot on today and highlighted just why Simon Grayson is so highly regarded in my view.

Leeds looked like a XI that played together every week. Everybody in the side knew their role and executed it perfectly. Man Utd on the other hand, seemed to lack any sort of understanding and it looked like a team that had been hastily put together. Leeds turned the game into a L1 scrap and, other than a lack of pace down the flanks in the first half, gave Man U little opportunity to do anything.

I was fearing a good hiding today. Leeds haven't been playing that well in recent weeks and if anything, this game has been something of a distraction. Best case scenario I'd have taken a proud 1-0 defeat, with a replay being the achievement of the decade but fair play to the team. Paddy Kisnorbo, Johnson and Killkenny in particular were all outstanding.
